desk model 4658

An extraordinary example of postwar design, this desk continues to be a revolutionary design in office utility. The functionality of the desk is exemplified in its components: a Pendaflex file drawer, a suspended sliding door cabinet above the writing surface and a folding typewriter shelf. Several small drawers and slots are contained within the cabinet, placing all office necessities within reach.
